Short and tight had said that Jay Chou's slow songs determined the breadth of his spread, while fast songs were responsible for depth.
This was probably the only human sentence he had ever said…
This sentence conveyed a message. The general direction of an album had to be unified, but it allowed for the existence of multiple styles.
In fact, in order to attract more listeners, many singers would choose different styles when writing songs and include them in an album.
Some people liked slow rhythms, some liked rock, some liked folk songs, and some liked electronics. A band couldn't be decathlon, but Fang Yun, who had a complete music library, of course wouldn't let his album be modeled.
After working for half a day, Fang Yun recorded twelve songs.
The brightest star in the night sky
"As sad as last year."
"Young and promising."
Return
Lend Me
"This Age"
Boy
"Waiting for Your Class to End"
Anhe Bridge
Ugly Man
Red Rose
The Ordinary Road
Some songs were so powerful that even if you knew the score, you wouldn't dare to copy it. For example, there were very few people in the country who could sing this song in its entirety, let alone rap.
Initially, Fang Yun wanted to copy some of JJ's songs, but considering Brother Bo's voice, he probably couldn't sing any of them.
Therefore, he could only choose some good works that were more eye-catching and less difficult.
"Not bad, Kumoko. I didn't expect you to be a great composer.”
"These are all old stocks."
Huang Bo's eyes were already getting brighter and brighter. The first song," The brightest star in the night sky," was already enough for them to become extremely popular. He didn't expect that the remaining 11 songs were actually not any worse than this song.
"How did you grow your head?" He really wanted to pry open Fang Yun's skull with a hammer to see if there was an alien living inside.
There were 12 songs in this album. There were pop, rock, and folk songs.
How was this a genius? He was a complete genius!
"Ugly freak?" Huang Bo narrowed his eyes." This is my exclusive song."”
"Don't be afraid, I'll write another 'Model' for you in the future.”
"That's good!" Huang Bo was delighted.
"Then don't stay idle. Hurry up and train!”Liu Che couldn't wait any longer. He immediately picked up his guitar and started warming up.
The songs that Fang Yun copied were also carefully selected. He tried to choose the songs that were released later to avoid getting into a lawsuit.
"It's not a problem to be so experienced. We have to discuss the distribution and recording. Sharpening the knife will not delay the chopping of firewood.”Huang Bo suggested.
"Alright, I'll make a call then."
Fang Yun nodded and took out his phone to call Wen Dong. He had many artistes under him, so he might have experience in releasing albums.
"Hello, Brother Dong?"
"I found some time to form a band. Do you have any way to help us promote it?”
"I'm not messing around with you. We've already written the song.”
"Twelve songs, enough for an album.”
"Alright then! We'll wait for you to discuss it tomorrow."
Fang Yun hung up the phone." It's done. My manager will come and talk to us tomorrow."”
"That's great!" Liu Che's face lit up, as if he was one step closer to his dream.
......
It was true that interest was the best teacher.
With Liu Che's lazy personality, he couldn't persevere in anything. However, he had practiced for the entire night. Fang Yun and Huang Bo were so sleepy that their eyelids were twitching. He had been practicing non-stop as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
It was not until Wen Dong knocked on the door the next day that he put down the guitar and rubbed his sore fingers. Then, he went out with the two of them to welcome them.
"Yo! This courtyard is not bad." Wen Dong sat down and praised.
As soon as his butt touched the chair, he went straight to the point." How's your song? Let me take a look first.”
"Ai!" Fang Yun agreed and handed the score of "Boy" to Wen Dong.
Wen Dong looked at the score. The smile on his face gradually froze, and his brows gradually furrowed.
Liu Che's heart was pounding as he watched from the side. He quietly tugged at Huang Bo's clothes and whispered,""Is that not possible?"
" Don't worry," Huang Bo comforted her slightly." Kumoko's songs are all fine."”
Although he said that, he was not confident. His palms were already sweating from nervousness. Although he saw that every song was top-notch, he could not guarantee that others would not like it. Art was like your poison and my medicine. It was normal for people to have different understandings.
Wen Dong's brows were so tightly knitted that he could pinch a fly to death. He had been reading the A4 paper for ten minutes.
He put down the score and took a deep breath." Anything else?”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Liu Che hurriedly took out all the remaining songs and stuffed them into his hands.
For a moment, a stack of scores made him flustered.
Wen Dong carefully unfolded each piece of music. With every page he turned, his eyebrows would rise a little. His fingers unconsciously tapped on the table, and his head shook slightly.
After another half an hour, he finally put down the score under the burning gazes of the three people.
Putting down the score, his fingers were still tapping the beat, as if he was reminiscing the song.
He took another deep breath." Not bad!”
Liu Che was so happy that he almost jumped up.
Even Huang Bo, who had always been steady, had tears in his eyes. The person sitting in front of them was one of the top managers in the country. To put it bluntly, his vision represented the vision of the people in the country.
His approval was like the market's affirmation of them.
How could he not be excited?
He had drifted north alone and had suffered too many looks of disdain. Seeing the bright future in front of him, all the memories surged into his mind.
Now, he should have some reputation.
"Every song is great!" Wen Dong couldn't help but sigh." You wrote all these?”
His eyes were filled with scrutiny as he stared at Fang Yun.
"You probably won't see anyone else on the market who can write these songs.”
Fang Yun didn't respond directly, but Wen Dong felt that Fang Yun was a genius.
"Then you might have to adjust your route in the future. It's too much of a waste to just be an actor.”
He swept his gaze over the two people beside him. When he saw Huang Bo, his gaze instinctively paused, and then he said as if nothing had happened,"I can report this to the higher-ups and help you promote it.”
"Thank you, Brother Dong!"
"You're welcome. We'll help each other out. I can earn more when you get up.”Wen Dong waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind.
"Then the company…" Fang Yun asked vaguely.
"That's the minimum." Wen Dong smiled.”
He extended three fingers.
Huang Bo sucked in a breath of cold air." Three million?!”
"It might still be a little conservative. I'll work hard to get it from the company and guarantee that the entire entertainment industry's layout for the first half of the year will be your album's promotion.”
Fang Yun was also a little shocked, and his evaluation of Huayi's ability had risen to another level.
In this day and age, there were not many companies that could spend millions on an album.
However, from Wen Dong's perspective, three million was still not enough.
The only thing to blame was that the internet was not developed enough these days. Print media were clustered together, unlike the music platforms in the future. Moreover, the audience's awareness of copyright had not been cultivated yet. However, relying on print media and television, this three million yuan was still a drop in the bucket.
However, that would be nonsense.
It was only a few million, and he earned it back in two concerts.
